That's what I am thinking. The guy still hasn't called me back, so I'm going to go bother the owner of the consigment place again tomorrow. If the mechanics check out and the price is cheap, it might be worth it just to drive it for a while. If I can't sell it for what I paid for it, I can always take it apart and sell it piece by piece on on ebay. That looks like a better way of getting rid of an old SL than selling it outright anyway.
